Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
My go-to hotel whenever I'm in Nairobi. I just love it - the location, price, condition of the facility, kindness and professionalism of the staff are unmatched. I only had one problem during this stay - internet problems that drove me to the hotel next door to use THEIR WiFi. Problem was resolved by the next day.

The staff is very friendly and welcoming. It is a part of a high end hotel and share a large pool, beautiful grounds, and an outdoor bar and bar menu. Very safe neighborhood, walking during the day, and a very pleasant place to hang out in the evening.
